Dr. Vickey Kalaskar and the SwRI team have pioneered a groundbreaking testing methodology to tackle stochastic pre-ignition (SPI) in heavy-duty hydrogen-fueled engines (H2-ICEs). SAN ANTONIO — ...

Detonation: A violent explosion; also called combustion knock. This usually occurs near the end of the combustion process when highly compressed, high-temperature end gases spontaneously ignite, ...

Southwest Research Institute and The University of Texas at San Antonio are collaborating to develop methods to detect pre-ignitions in real-time. The researchers will first use laboratory-grade ...

ISRO said the successful ignition of the pre-burner was a “major milestone” in the development of the engine. “This will be followed by development tests on the engine power head test article and ...

THE experiments on the frictional electrification of sand described by E. W. B. Gill 1 are of interest in respect of the pre-ignition and combustion knock generally observed when hydrogen is used as ...
